I think this problem maybe unique to me, it's not a problem operational wise but still it's maybe worth reporting
When I recurse my entire music collection, I get about 50 entries that are lost files, (they aren't lost, If I go to where the mp3s are via VDJ browser they'll play)
I've tried
database>remove missing files from db
manually deleting each entry from the search db
file operations>delete file
Repatriated the missing file to the db entry
Every time I restart and recurse the entries are still there,
I've done a brief scan of my db with a text editor and can't see these problematic entries
I can live with how it is, because it's only a small detail, but if support are interested I can post details of the tracks and host my DB off site.

I am having the same issue. Here is my thread: http://www.virtualdj.com/forums/190751/PC_Version_Technical_Support/VDJ8_and_database.html

I solved my problem. I had some old set list m3u files that were in my search patch and VDJ8 saw those files and added the songs to my list. Once I removed those .m3u files, my database was back in shape, the broken files were gone and my duplicates went away as well.

I found my issue, I keep all my music on M:\ but these tracks were included on the C:\ Database for some unknown reason, a swift edit and all was good.
